Winter conditions by Dettifoss

At the beginning of October it started to snow at Dettifoss and temperature dropped below zero. This means that, even though there may be warmer days in between, winter conditions can still be expected until spring. The conditions of the trails in the area can therefore change often and quickly due to quick changes in the weather. For safety reasons, the trails near the edges of the canyon have been closed for the winter. Instead, a winter route to the viewing platform north of the waterfall has been opened.
